Trash Into Treasure: 60-Year-Old Transforms 200 kg Of E-Waste Into Artistic Masterpieces, Sells Globally

Who is Vishwanath Mallabadi Davangere?

Eco-Artist Transforms Trash into Treasure : Meet Vishwanath Mallabadi Davangere, the Retired Wipro Exec Turned Master of Recycling. This Bangalore-based artist has a unique talent for turning discarded items into stunning works of art.

Who is Vishwanath Mallabadi Davangere?

Trash Into Treasure!

Making Art Out of Tech Waste

500+ Eco Art Out Of E-Waste

Trash Into Treasure!

With India facing a growing e-waste crisis, producing 10.1 lakh tonnes in 2019-20 with only 22.7% recycled, Vishwanath’s passion for recycling is more important than ever.

He focuses on retrieving items such as copper, gold, and multi-coloured wires, keyboards, and computer components that are useful based on their texture, color, and form.

This approach allows him to effectively utilize materials that would otherwise be discarded and contribute to the growing issue of e-waste.

Growing up, Vishwanath’s father was a renowned sculptor and painter, but he had hopes of his son becoming a doctor. But Vishwanath had other ideas. He was fascinated with upcycling second-hand objects from a young age, and decided to pursue a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Applied Art.

Even as a high-level executive at Wipro, working in Talent Transformation, Vishwanath couldn’t shake his passion for eco-art. In his free time and on the weekends, he devoted himself to experimenting with e-waste and creating one-of-a-kind masterpieces.

Now, he’s living proof that turning a hobby into a business can lead to a fulfilling and exciting career!

Making Art Out of Tech Waste

Vishwanath is a master of turning tech trash into treasure! He takes apart everything from computers and laptops, to data cards and even medical devices, and transforms them into works of art.

It all started as a fun hobby – making little animals out of scrap gadgets. But as he learned more about the harm e-waste was causing to the environment, he took his art to the next level, creating murals and sculptures that spread awareness about this pressing issue.

And the best part? It’s now turned into a successful business! After retiring two years ago, Vishwanath started selling his unique eco-art pieces and has built a global following, with buyers from Europe, the Netherlands, the US, and even Delhi.

From computer keyboard keys to resistors and even wristwatch parts, Vishwanath has transformed over 500 pieces of e-waste into stunning pieces of art! This eco-artist’s talent knows no bounds as he transforms trash into treasure with his visionary imagination and skilled hands.

500+ Eco Art Out Of E-Waste

He has created a six-foot-tall sculpture, a portrait of business tycoon Azim Premji, eco-jewellery, and even wearable art for a fashion show. Each piece is unique, crafted with care, and made from items that would otherwise end up in landfills.

The process of upcycling is not for the faint-hearted, but Vishwanath takes on the challenge with passion and determination. He carefully examines each item of e-waste, looking at its texture, shape, color and more, before conceptualizing the final product.

Turning trash into treasure! That’s the magic of Vishwanath’s art. In just a few short minutes, he can turn scraps of e-waste into stunning pieces of jewelry. But, when it comes to sculptures, the process might take weeks or even months. But it’s all worth it because sustainable initiatives and upcycled art are all the rage these days.

Companies everywhere are looking to adopt a more sustainable culture, and Vishwanath’s art is the perfect addition to any eco-friendly office or home.

He’s not only an eco-artist, but also a published author, with a paper about upcycling for sustainable living that was published by Springer Nature, Singapore in 2020. And the eco-artist is just getting started!

Currently, he’s working on a massive 20×30 foot public art installation that’s sure to turn heads. Using discarded parts of mobile phones, remote controls, and calculators, this work of art will showcase just how much beauty can be created from what some might consider “trash.”

And that’s not all, Vishwanath is also working on a mural installation and 3D sculpture that he hopes to showcase in the Bengaluru metro.

Rishad Premji can leave executive role from 2020 : Wipro

Wipro has indicated that chairman designate Rishad Premji may cease to play an executive role from next year when Sebi’s mandate regarding chairpersons of listed companies kicks in. The stock market regulator had amended its rules last year to mandate that the top 500 listed companies should ensure, with effect from April 2020, that the chairperson of the board must be a non-executive director. In its annual report for 2018-19 that has just been released, Wipro said, “As and when the amendments to Regulation 17(1B) of the listing regulations requiring appointment of non-executive chairman by listed entities come into effect, Mr Rishad A Premji will cease to perform any executive roles in the company and continue in the capacity of non-executive director (designated as “non-executive chairman” by the Board of Directors) of the company, such that the company remains compliant with the listing regulations in force at all times.” If that happens, it will be one of the rare instances where the promoter family, even though having voting rights to the extent of almost 74% of the shareholding in the company, will play no role in the day-to-day running of it. Azim Premji has committed 67% of Wipro shares to his philanthropic foundation, but the family continues to have the voting rights on these shares. It is probably because of the likely change in role that Rishad Premji’s fixed salary has been proposed to be in a range – of Rs 4.5 crore and Rs 9 crore, according to the annual report. Shareholders will vote on this at the company’s annual general meeting (AGM) on 16th July. The fixed salary comprises of various allowances and reimbursements under the Wipro Benefits Plans & Allowances. Premji will also get a commission of 0.35% of the incremental consolidated net profit of the company. Last year, as chief strategy officer, Premji had received a gross salary of Rs 1.09 crore, a variable pay of Rs 4.82 crore, and allowances, retiral and other annual compensation of Rs 0.92 crore, adding to a total of Rs 6.83 crore. As chairman, he will earn a higher fixed salary, and his variable pay will be replaced by the commission on profit. A Wipro spokesperson said the roles and responsibilities of Premji as executive chairman are different from that of his previous role and a comparison of compensation in the two roles would be “unfair and erroneous.” He said the AGM would seek shareholder approval for a compensation range proposed to be paid over five years and not for a particular year. The Premjis have traditionally not taken much by way of salary. But they earn significantly through the dividends on their shareholding. However, that too is now down sharply, after Azim Premji committed most of the shareholding to his foundation. Rishad Premji will take over as chairman from his father effective 31st July. The annual report shows that among the senior management, Wipro CFO Jatin Dalal and COO Bhanumurthy BM’s gross remunerations saw sharp increases in 2018-19. Dalal got a 30% increase to Rs 6.09 crore, and Bhanumurthy received a 23.4% to Rs 6.91 crore. The remuneration comprises of salary, allowances, commissions, performance-based payments and other perks. It also includes the perquisites value of restricted stock units (RSUs) as exercised by the executives. The number of people in Wipro’s crorepati club reduced to 67 in 2018-19, from 86 in the previous year. In contrast, the number of Infosys executives with compensation above Rs 1 crore rose sharply to 64 in 2018-19, from 28 in the year before. Read the full article
